The introduction of the draft Design Guide states that the overall aim is to encourage
well-designed developments and a list of requirements such as “provide dwellings that are functional,
accessible, sustainable, and meet the needs of a diverse range of users” but there is no evidence
that the Council have to tried to establish what this would actually mean for those residents and how
it would be achieved in a meaningful way. The NMDC makes it clear that the engagement process
needs to take place through a combination of workshops and interactive events as well as drop-in
events and exhibitions.
